Quarkus vs Spring Boot: Which Java Framework Should You Choose?
For over a decade, Spring Boot has reigned supreme as the de facto standard for building enterprise Java applications. Its rich ecosystem, convention-over-configuration paradigm, robust dependency injection engine, and vast community support made Java the bedrock of backend systems worldwide.
However, the shift toward Cloud-Native Architectures, Kubernetes orchestration, Docker containerization, and Serverless execution (AWS Lambda, Knative) introduced new technical challenges for backend infrastructure: memory efficiency, instant scaling, and cold-start latency.
